The latest Eric Young MLB and fantasy baseball news

New York Mets manager Terry Collins faces a difficult situation when OF Juan Lagares (hamstring) returns from the 15-day disabled list this weekend. Collins must find a way to juggle Lagares, OFs Curtis Granderson, Chris Young and Eric Young in the same outfield. Collins plans to sit the group down this weekend and tell them they will all get regular playing time, but that they will also regularly sit on the bench. "I think all of them deserve to be out there at some time," Collins said Tuesday, April 29. "They all have a key part on our club, and I don't know how I'm going to rotate it just yet, but I think they all deserve an opportunity. I don't think there's one guy you can point your finger at and say, 'Hey, you're not playing'."

The Houston Chronicle's Jose De Jesus Ortiz reports the Houston Astros hired former MLB 2B/OF and ESPN analyst Eric Young to serve as a roving instructor. Young, who lives in Houston, left ESPN when his contract wasn't renewed.
